Crabby Shack (the) - Brooklyn

We ordered two crab rolls, one with bacon, mayo, garlic butter, and coleslaw, and the other with avocado, tomato, cucumber, and garlic butter. However, when we opened the bag, they were just plain crab rolls. Despite this, the crab rolls were still really good. We were just disappointed because the toppings we chose could have elevated it to the next level. Overall, we rate the food 4 out of 5.

We were excited to finally try this place, and it left me highly disappointed... I ordered the crab and shrimp platter, which tasted sour as if something was spoiled, same with the mac and cheese... The chicken sandwich was chewy and rubbery... it was all so bad we ended up throwing the food away after informing the young lady of our concerns it was suggested to just throw it away, she did offer a new plate but at that time the damage was done and was already turned off and felt sick.... we were informed that the policy was no refunds in the store. We must contact the owners via email for a refund... we have contacted them multiple times since our visit with no response... waste of money and time

I lived in New England for some time and was spoiled by the many lobster roll options. When I get that craving here, the crabby shack is always my go to spot. I know here I am getting the closest I can to that delicious lobster roll taste I like. First off, I think a lot of people are turned off my pricing, yes these are quite small perhaps 2 might be better, but still as far as lobster roll goes this is quite normal. Here I've tried the crab roll, lobster roll, clam chowder, tomato basil and banana pudding. My least favorite has been the tomato basil soup but the rest of my selections were delicious. The only thing I recommend is that they butter toast the bread a bit more! But overall, it's a delicious meal each time!

The seafood is pretty decent. The fried whiting comes with two slices of bread and some garden greens. I requested tartar sauce but that didn’t make the trip. Could be the fact that the delivery guy dropped the order before handing it off in a torn paper bag. The crab blt was excellent! Eat everything fresh when you get it. Any reheating will not generate the same experience from the original time you got your food. The fish was good and the crab tastes fresh. I would try it again.

Great shrimp, crabs, and fish. Excellent corn bread. The drinks are a nice touch lending to an island vibe. The chowder was awesome, too. I like all different types of music. That being said, I understand that we were in Brooklyn, but playing rap music the whole time we were there was not cool. I am a native New Yorker, and so were my guests. We are from different age groups. It would have been nice to hear a variety of music instead of what the cashier and or kitchen staff prefer. Other than that, the food was great and the place was very clean.
